Why Silverfast?

Yes, call me Fletch, everyone else does.

You may be right about CCD scanners being pos -scan image manipulators.
I don't know from direct experience on that. However, from  flow
scematics I have seen describing
some of them, indications are that  software set-up adjustments at the
scanner do apply to the scanned image before conversion from analog to
digital info. But that's about as far as I
will  venture on the subject of CCD.

Except one last thing. Concerning the Leica scanning camera and
Silverfast: I am virtually
certain that all maniputalions to the scanned image were done on the fly
in the analog state, before digital conversion. What I programmed in the
scan set-up was what I got at the
workstation. Am I missing something here?
